  • Perhaps if we sweettalk them ?

    A card manufacturer from Canada
    is rumoured to release Parhelia.
    They produce good hardware
    touted by folks everywhere
    we love matrox, eat that, NVidia !

    Subtle hints have been dropped,
    a new card or merely a plot ?
    Please Haig, Maggi or Ant
    stop teasing the users, and
    tell us everything, the whole lot !

    Parhelia is the alleged codename,
    "sundogs" a simpler word for the same:
    'tis an optical effect in the air
    truly a codename with flair
    but will it allow us to play a game ?

    Matrox have a booth at GDC,
    a demonstration worth to be seen ?
    Headcasting, that was a joke,
    laughed so hard I thought I'd choke.
    Let's hope now it's gaming they mean!

    Press releases courtesy of Dogbert,
    Seeing they're fake really does hurt.
    Often I've cursed those NDAs,
    must provide fun for the "haigs" (*)
    we want the truth out in the herd !

    I've managed to write this before noon,
    somehow I feel like a complete goon:
    all this time I have spent hoping,
    for Matrox to release something,
    thinking that they'll release it very ... shortly



    (*) haig, (-s), n. someone who knows something but can't or won't share the knowledge...


    Well, I couldn't sleep last night; I had to do something ?

              There seems to be a few of us who "don't know nothing"

                    English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

                      Yes.

                      How much are you willing to spend?

                      I have a £10-note that says you don´t know very much.
                      Prove me wrong!!

                      I give you 6 hours.
